On the same day news broke of his two-year ban from Wall Street, the hedge fund billionaire got word that LightSquared, one of his major investments, will likely get a green light from the Federal Communications Commission.

‘‘If gold went to $1,000 I wouldn’t be a buyer. If it went to $800, I wouldn’t be a buyer. It’s never interested me. If you go back to 1965, Berkshire was at $15 and gold was at $35, so you could’ve bought two shares of Berkshire for an ounce of gold, a little more than two shares. And so far, two shares of Berkshire’s been better.”

F. Lee Bailey, the superstar lawyer who was part of O.J. Simpson’s defense team, has filed for bankruptcy in federal court in Maine in an attempt to discharge a federal tax debt of nearly $5.2 million.
Debts to the Internal Revenue Service are not normally discharged in bankruptcy proceedings, but Bailey said Friday that they can be after a period of time and as long as he has complied with certain conditions, such as filing and paying his taxes on time since the original taxes and penalties were assessed. He owes the money from a dispute over his reportable income from 1993 to 2001.
“After trying very hard to settle the case, the IRS turned me down on the grounds that I am a celebrity and it would look bad for them to settle the case,” Bailey, who now lives in Yarmouth, said Friday. “There’s a good case to be made for bias, but I’m not the one to make that case.”
